It's a great upgrade for the gx7. However ...

I'd wait a few months though, there might be a g90 round the corner, which you may prefer. Also it's not going up in price.

Also the pl25 1.4 is way better than the bargain basement 25mm they'll be sellotaping to that gx9. I'd keep that.

Spot on! Excellent advice!

The GX9 is going to be a relatively high production camera, from a major electronics conglomerate, so I'd expect that the price will drop steadily, starting a few months after release.
